Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show, live on Sirius XM Channel 111 every weekday at noon east.
Hey, everyone. I'm Megyn Kelly. Welcome to The Megyn Kelly Show. Time magazine has named its person of the year. Can you guess who it is? Do you have a thought in your mind of who it should be? I'm going to tell you in one second. And Gavin Newsom is making his 2028 plans official as he rolls out his pre-book tour. Later in the show, we will have an actual book author, somebody who writes all his own stuff and is a best-selling author. He happens to be married to me. His name is Doug Brunt, and he's going to be here for our second hour. That'll be fun. But we start today with our Megyn Kelly Channel lead-in show hosts, Tom Bevin, Carl Cannon, and Andrew Walworth, who are Real Clear Politics, along with some other great people over there,
There are a lot of politicians that should be getting coal in their stockings for Christmas, but Birch Gold thinks as a smart planner, you deserve silver. That's why with every $5,000 you purchase between now and December 22nd, Birch Gold will send you an ounce of silver, which is up over 60% this year. See, smart people diversify and have a hedge. That's why you should consider Birch Gold. With the rates cut now from the Fed in 2026, the dollar will likely be worth less. And what happens if the AI bubble bursts? Let Birch Gold Group help you convert an existing IRA or 401k into a tax-sheltered IRA in physical gold. And for every $5,000 you buy, you will get an ounce of silver for your stocking or for your kids.
Just text MK to 989898 to claim your eligibility for this offer. Again, text MK to the number 989898 today because Birch Gold's free silver with qualifying purchase promotion ends on December 22nd. Message and data rates may apply. Guys, welcome back. How's it going? Great. All right. So there's plenty to go over. You are? So for the listening audience, he means on SiriusXM. We now have a Megyn Kelly channel. And we're, of course, live on it at noon east. And these guys are live on it at the beginning of the hour before. And the show is a huge hit.
Yeah. Megyn did Time Magazine. I haven't seen that yet. Did they get my nominee, which was you, to be the first? Did they follow my advice?
Sadly, not even an honorable mention, Carl. I was robbed. I was seriously robbed. It could be because when I showed up as a member of the Time 100, I crapped all over their award show and said no one here is actually really important. That may have come back to haunt me. I remember that.
Yeah, I remember that.
As it turns out, doesn't win you any friends at Time. Here is who they went for. Okay. They chose, hold on, I want to make sure I get it right because it's actually kind of weird. Artificial intelligence. 2025 was the year when artificial intelligence is full potential roared into view. And when it became clear that there will be no turning back for delivering the age of thinking machines, for wowing and worrying humanity, for transforming the president and transcending the possible, the architects of AI are Time's 2025 person of the year. And they've got... Like two letters, AI with like scaffolding in front of the two letters as the representation of AI. And then there's the, it's the classic, you know, construction guys on the crane sticking out from a building from like the 1930s, only it's got Elon and I can't even read it from this far, but I think it's all, it's like Elon and Sam, Elon, Sam Altman, Mark Zuckerberg and others
as if they would be caught dead on one of those cranes sticking out from the skyscrapers in Manhattan. In any event, it's fucking AI. It's AI architects. It's not Charlie Kirk, which is so obvious. It's obvious as the nose on your face. And don't tell me detractors, oh, he was too controversial. That's not it. They've gone for extremely controversial people and villains in the past. It's always and often come down to like Vladimir Putin, the Ayatollah. We've had very controversial people make it or almost make it. And not only did Charlie not get chosen, he wasn't even one of like the honorable mentions.
